Oh ita, we simply must talk before you drop. I'm having t-shirt issues, and security issues, and I think they're solved, but could use advisement.

We're totally using the room I showed you, but I think I have some confusion on some confusing things.

So go to sleep and when you wake up, ice something and have tea and then let's run through stuff, okay?

Because, helllloooo, it's all about me and my needs.

I did, finally. Most of the food was gone at the BBQ (being three hours late'll have that effect), but I finished the mudd pie and scarfed more cake.

Then I made them go out to a restaurant "before" the bar (everyone went home after the restaurant because, tired, test tomorrow, spring forward) and ate Brazilian shrimp (can the wax jokes) and am happy.

I can't believe I have to eat again tomorrow. But mostly I should sleep, because I teach at for two hours before my test, so the day starts at 9:30.

Oh, Allyson! I'm out of the house pretty early (see above), but I should be home by five at the latest. Can we talk then?

Of course. And thanks!

And there was a nice post the other day at the Fuselage where someone was listing what they were looking forward to, and one of the things was saying hello to the hot security team.

ita, I skipped - you have a krav test tomorrow? Good luck!

[Edit: Allyson, when is the party, again?]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TOM!!

I'm glad you ate, and are happy, ita. Now go to sleep.

Hee!

you have a krav test tomorrow?

Phase C instructor test. Which, really, all you need to know is that I'm tired as hell, but almost done. I have ass to kick, and a back not to injure doing so.

April 16th, Nilly. I was out shopping for centerpieces today.

I got big glass bowls, which I'll fill partly with pretty polished colored stones, and then water, and float flower petals on the water and floating candles. We have lots of lighting effects, and I thought the water on the tables would have a cool reflecting effect.

Almost done is good, kicking you can do with your pinkie, and back~ma is coming your way.

Oh, weekend after next, right? I hope this party treats you nicer than the former one.

That sounds absolutely gorgeous.

I'm not willing to trade away any of my years (quite the opposite, but I'm sad how little it can feel I did with the time)

Yes. This.

I totally forgot about the party. That all about me thing. I wish I could come, but will settle for sending best wishes and much ~ma for the last minute rush. The bowls and water and flowers and lighting effects sound all kinds of pretty.
